The Phillies also officially placed right-hander Zach Eflin on the 10-day disabled list to begin the 2017 season. This was basically a formality as Eflin, who had surgery on each of his knees since last pitching in a big league game in August, had been behind in camp. Eflin should be ready to join the rotation at Triple-A Lehigh Valley sometime this month.

The Phillies season gets underway on Monday at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati. First pitch is scheduled for 4:10 p.m.
